What are the 0115 Area Codes?

What exactly is an area code? An area code is used when dialling the number of a person based in a different locality to the person making the phone call. For example, if a person in London dialled the number 123456, they would get through to a person / business in London with the number 123456. However, if they dialled 0115 123456, they would reach the person / business in Nottingham with the number 123456. An area code can also therefore be used to uniquely identify an area – so that all numbers beginning 0115 are based in Nottingham.

Area codes can sometimes vary in length. For clarity, they are written separately (often in brackets) to the main six digit phone number. For example, (0115) 123456. This way, you can easily tell which is the area code and which isn’t, and also, whether you need to type the code in or not depending on whether you live in the same locality to the person you are calling or not.

The Nottingham area code became 0115 in April 1995. Prior to this date it was 0602.
